          widget from which a menu was posted

     SYNOPSIS

     DESCRIPTION
          XmGetPostedFromWidget returns the widget from which a menu
          was posted.  For torn-off menus, this function returns the
          widget from which the menu was originally torn.  An
          application can use this routine during the activate
          callback to determine the context in which the menu callback
          should be interpreted.

          For a complete definition of RowColumn and its associated
          resources, see XmRowColumn(3X).

     RETURN VALUE
          Returns the widget ID of the widget from which the menu was
          posted.  If the menu is a Popup Menu, the returned widget is
          the widget from which the menu was popped up.  If the menu
          is a Pulldown Menu, the returned widget is the MenuBar or
          OptionMenu from which the widget was pulled down.
